With the board showing , Hoss Colao bet an unknown amount and Dean Metzger raised to 12,700 total. Colao went into the tank, and eventually opted to let technology decide his fate. He opened up a Coin Flip app on his phone.
"Heads I call, tails I fold," he told Metzger.
It landed heads, and Colao stuck to his promise.
"Good call," Metzger said as he tabled for ten-high. Colao revealed his winning
"Does it always come up heads?" someone at the tabled asked.
Colao: "No, but I do whatever it says."

The players are on a 15-minute break while the T25-denomination chips are being removed from the tournament.
We walked up on a big pot brewing between Ryan Rivers and Alex Barker. With 26,000 in the pot already, Rivers and Barker saw a flop of and both checked. The hit the turn and Rivers bet 10,000, enough to put Barker all in. Barker tossed his lone T10,000 chip into the pot for the call.

Barker:
Barker was already drawing dead, and the meaningless completed the board to send Barker to the rail.
Dan Piccioli doubled through Rivers on the next hand, but yesterday's runner-up in Event #10 is still sitting comfortably with around 65,000.

Sharman Olshan called us over to tell us that her son, Aaron Olshan, had made a queen-high straight flush and got paid off on it. Sharman is seated two seats to the left of Aaron, so she had a good view of the big pot.
When browsing through our Player Updates section, it appears Sonny Rattan was the victim of the straight flush. Here's Rattan's report:
"Just lost with K high flush, to a straight flush. Gotta get some back."
